Gulf Coast Favorites: 30-Minute Recipes from My Louisiana Kitchen (Trim & Terrific) Paperback – Illustrated, September 2, 2008

Good recipe collection for one pot and mostly less than eight ingredients.

As the owner of approximately 500 cookbooks, I can say this is a real gem of a cookbook! I live in the "Coastal Bend" area of Texas (near Corpus Christi) and my husband reliably brings home fantastic fresh speckled trout, redfish, and flounder. I had purchased Holly Clegg's Gulf Coast Favorites a couple of years ago, but it unfortunately got buried under other cookbooks. When I recently adopted a WeightWatchers "Points System"-style eating plan for my husband and myself, I was delighted when I REdiscovered this cookbook! Since each recipe includes nutritional information, I simply use my "WW Points Calculator" to calculate points and jot it down next to the recipe. I have been very pleased with the very low point count for almost all of the recipes that interest me. The cookbook itself includes many mouth-watering photos which only serve to make you want to hurry to try the recipes. Some of my personal favorites are "Simply Sensational Fish Carlysle" (page 117, 5 points), "Shrimp, Mango, and Avocado Salad" (page 73, 4 points), and "Southwestern Breakfast Bake" (page 44, 3 points). There are so many, many more I can't wait to try! I have recommended this cookbook to several friends and can't wait to give copies as gifts.

I love Holly’s cookbooks. Recipes are healthy and easy to follow. Just like Holly, her recipes are trim and terrific. This is a great girlfriend gift!Geaux Holly!

This is a great cookbook. A lot of delicious recipes converted into shaving a lot of fat out of them. Holly did a fantastic job. Highly recommended.

Haven't tried any of the recipes ye,t but they all look great.

This book is absolutely amazing as it contains so many recipes which are easy to prepare, are healthy and have a great taste to them.The book arrived in mint condition way ahead of schedule and I would definitely buy from this vendor again.

This is a colorful cookbook that has some great recipes. I recommend it.

As a Registered Dietitian I appreciate the expertise of a fellow professional. I have tried many of these recipes in the past when they appeared in the local paper. Decided to by the cookbook so I would have a complete collection.Directions are clear and concise. Recipe product at or above what I anticipated. RIP Holly. Your legacy lives on.
